where的特殊用法?

He succeeded where other people failed .
这里的where 要怎么理解
另,求讲解where 的特殊用法,不要普通的
谢谢

这里的where引导定语从句
相当于He succeeded in things that other people failed.

where还能引导条件状语从句,相当于if
比如 where there is will, there is a way.追问

那么请问这里把where 替换成as 表让步条件可以吗

追答

He succeeded as other people failed.
从意思上来看是有转折的意思, 但是这里的as还是相当于when或者while,所以说表示让步条件有些牵强。

where引导的是地点状语从句。
在别人失败的地方,他成功了。
这个不属于where的特殊用法,而是很常见的引导地点状语从句的引导词:意思是:在……地方
Where there is a will, there is a way.
Put back the book where it is.追问

可是,这样翻译不是很奇怪吗?
如果把where 替换成as 行不行呢?

追答

不能替换成as,这是地点状语从句的。
译文就这个意思。
地点状语从句  常用引导词:where
特殊引导词:wherever, anywhere, everywhere
Generally, air will be heavily polluted where there are factories.
Wherever you go, you should work hard.
地点状语从句一般由连接副词where, wherever等引导,已经形成了固定的句型,例如:
句型1:Where+地点从句,(there)+主句。
【注意】此句型通常译成“哪里……哪里就……”;主句在从句后面时,there可用可不用;如果主句在从句的前面时,一般都不用there。例如:
Where there is no rain, farming is difficult or impossible.在没有雨水的地方,耕作是困难的,或根本不可能的。
They were good persons. Where they went, there they were warmly welcomed. 他们都是好人。因此他们走到哪里都受到热烈欢迎。
You should have put the book where you found it. 你本来应该把书放回原来的地方。
Where the Communist Party of China goes, there the people are liberated.哪里有了中国共产党,哪里人民就得解放。
句型2:anywhere/wherener+地点从句/主句。
【注意】anywhere本身是个副词,但是,常可以引导从句,相当于连词,意思相似于wherever, anywhere引导的从句可位于主句之前,也可以位于主句之后。 而wherever本身就是个连词,表示“在何处,无论何处”。例如:
Wherever the sea is , you will find seamen.有海就有海员。

一、where引导定语从句时, where是关系副词, 在从句中作地点状语, 其前面有表示地点的先行词, where引导的从句修饰先行词。例如:
The bookshop where I bought this book is not far from here. 我买这本书的那个书店离这里不远。
This is the house where I lived two years ago. 这就是我两年前住的那个房子。
We will start at the point where we left off. 我们将从上次停下来的地方开始。
二、where引导状语从句时, where是从属连词, where引导的从句修饰主句的谓语动词, where前面没表示地点的先行词。本身相当于 in/at the place where....具有先行词和引导词的双重功效,例如:
Wuhan lies (in the place)where the Changjiang River and the Han Jiang River meet.
武汉位于长江和汉江汇合处。
Make a mark (in/at the place)where you have any doubts or questions.
在有疑问的地方做一个记号。
I found my books(in/ at the place) where I had left them.
我在我原来放书的地方找到了我的书。
三.先行词也可以表模糊化地点或表抽象化地点的名词,在这一类先行词后也可由where引导定语从句,在定语从句中作状语。这类模糊化的或表抽象的地点名词有:point, position, situation, condition, state,atmosphere, case, scene, business, stage等。例如:
3. I have reached a point in my life ___ I am supposed to make decisions of my own. (2009 浙江卷,14)
A. which B. where C. how D. why
